Sunrise at the temple,
Celebration of a new day,
Prayers are chanted,
Thankfulness sent to heaven,
Hopes are brought forward.
Sunrise brings warmth for the day,
Taking turn with the nights coldness,
At the Bedugul Lake.
So do life …
[Lake Bedugul, 2013]
Early morning at the twilight zone,
Dawn is the time to enjoy,
Beatiful lights of the nature,
Such as the beauty high in the Bedugul lake,
Where Ulun Danu Temple was.
[Bedugul, 2013]
As the boy grows
The times he will remember
Is the joys of life
A time shared with his father
Playing in the field
Releasing kites that will fly high
As he will fly away too
[Bali Adventures 2013, Ubud Kaja]
Celebrating
Rituals
A time to held prayers
A time for rejoice
A time to remember
Prosperity
Is for the people
And the whole world
[Bali Adventures 2013 – Petulu]
Early in the morning
The paddy fields glowing
As the sun ray hits them
Yellow as gold
Sign that harvest is near
All the hardwork to be paid off
[Jatiluwih World Heritage 2013]

Note for those who love to see landscapes, the two mountain seen near the sun (Mount Batur and Mount Agung) is only seen from this side until around 10 am; afterthat they are not able to be seen anymore. Funny but true.
Catatan:
Foto HDR ini diolah dari 5 frame dengan base pada ISO 100, f/22, 1/8.
Pengolahan menggunakan Photomatrix Pro dengan pilihan proses Contrast Optimizer Tone Mapping. Belajar dari RC Concepcion di Kelby Training, maka pada slider strength digeser ke 100, untuk tone compression di geser ke kanan sampai diperoleh tonal yang menarik. Sedangkan slider lain hanya untuk memperkuat hasil saja. Selanjutnya pengolahan menggunakan Photoshop.
Kebersamaan dalam ikatan
Kekuatan dalam tradisi
Kedamaian dalam kepatuhan
Keteguhan dalam keramaian
Hidup adalah pilihan
